BREAKiNG NEWS: Make PS3 Back-ups through XMB!!

I am currently developing a barbaric method by which I have already been able to dump a small section of the Bluray games while in the XMB. I will create the necessary file to dump the entire disk tonight and post it here.

Up until now, the only way to make PS3 back-ups was to use the PS3 Linux Method or PS3 SAK v1.00. Tonight, resident PS3Dev'er hacked2123 is planning to share with the world how to make PS3 disc back-ups via the PS3 XMB! To quote:

Excellent news! Thank you for the hard work you put into this. I'm curious to know why the need for an IDE-SATA adapter as well (my guess is that you need an external power supply for some reason). I can only imagine what you mean by "barbaric."
